What is a Browser?

W

Web browsers are software applications that allow you to view and interact with web pages on the internet. Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge, for example, request data from servers when you enter a URL or click a link. They then interpret the returned HTML, CSS, and JavaScript code to display a functional and visually appealing page to the user.

The Role of a Browser

  • Request & Response: When a user requests a webpage, the browser sends a request to the server and receives code in return.
  • Interpretation: The browser reads HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to produce a usable visual interface.
  • Interaction: It handles user actions like clicking buttons, filling out forms, or scrolling, and updates the displayed page accordingly.
